Plum clafouti

I read this really great book called The Sweet Life in Paris, by David Lebovitz. I read quite a bit and his book really stayed with me. I loved it. Lebovitz included many great recipes throughout his book. The one that I had my eye on was his Plum and raspberry cloufouti because we have a plum tree. I have been wanting to make this for 3 years. I just had not gotten around to it. It is a very simple recipe to prepare. The baking time is a little bit long but not too bad.

Plums faced down after pitting and halving.

Add fresh raspberries

Voila! So delicate and delicious especially with a scoop of vanilla!
